[CONTENTID2]AshHossain[/CONTENTID2][CONTENTID3]“The final stage starts in 2 minutes guys. Get ready….. specifically you N and Leo…”

The manager shouted at N who was now completely drenched in his own sweat and held a water bottle in his hand. N just gave a mere nod while Leo, who was standing at least 50 feet away from N, just ignored the manager completely. He was annoyed.

He must really hate it ….

N stared at Leo from far away. Suddenly Leo turned to N and their eyes met. N shrugged as all the Neo stories he read in these last few days,all started to play in his mind. He instantly darted his stare to the opposite direction where he saw Ravi smiling shyly looking at them. Ravi’s been doing this for These past two weeks.

It feels weird now.

Leo also found himself blushing when N turned away. Of course, the images of the fanfictions that he read also flashed before his eyes.

Leo tried to stay away from N like DID NOT EVEN STAND ANYWHERE BESIDE HIM in this last week. Well N also didn't mind,rather he was glad. Whenever they got together,things would become awkward between them and N would start to feel his heart race fast while Leo felt it impossible to look at the latter because of the blood rushing to his face. So they could not even utter a word while they were together.And the main culprit of this awkward situation was….

“Hyung FIGHTING!!!” Ken gleefully shouted as he hugged the tanned one from behind. Normally he would be smiling at Ken’s action but right now he was anything but in a mood to smile. Therefore he just hit Ken’s head with the empty bottle slightly before releasing himself to change his outfit. After all it was because of him that he was even in this mess right now.

Yes,Ken….It was all his fault...

2weeks before the concert

Vapp live

“Well as you have heard ,our concert is in two weeks... this time we prepared a lot…”

“Ahhh!!! My starlight babies!” Ken hollered from behind the camera,cutting Ravi off.

“De... Ken hyung is doing his make-up now. And others are also getting dressed. Me and Hongbin are the only one that's finished…”

“I missed you so much!!my babies…” Ken finally ran in front of the camera, blocking Ravi fully.

“Did you miss me?”

“Hyung,you are blocking me”

“Stay still! I  have an offer to make to my Starlight babies! And I'm sure they'll love it..”Ken said as he pulled out a heart from underneath his suit.

“on our concert we are going to act out a drama!”

“We are?” Hongbin was confused as he came and stood beside Ken, to show his face to the camera.

“ Yup! But what do you think the story will be?” Ken started to scratch his chin trying to act all baffled. Finally sending a Bright smile at the camera.

“Did you get it? Say it…. I can't hear you!” Ken stuck his ear out , pretending to listen to Starlights reply.

“Dingdongdong. ..yup! You got it right! The story will be written by my DEAR BABIES! You guys write a lot of fanfictions about us! So send us your work,and we will choose the best one to perform!” Ken put his hands up in the air in joy.

“Wait,when was this planned?” Hongbin looked puzzled as he looked at Ken. Ravi was standing behind him.

“....now?” Ken replied.

“But-”

“It's a marvelous idea right Ravi? Our Starlights write so many good stories,it's an appreciation for their hard work. You are with me , ain't you Ravi?”

Ravi sending him a perplexed look shifted his gaze to Hongbin,who was equally baffled. Appreciating the work of Starlights was a hard one to deny and ignore now,especially when it was live broadcast. Ken played it real well.

“Yes...but..”

“So send us your work in the next two days! NO !” Ravi was again cut off by Ken.

“What’s ?” N asked standing behind the three donseangs, missing out every single word that his donseangs had said.

“Nothing..” Ken replied without turning to him.

“Bye my babies …” sending kisses to Starlights.

Vlive ended.

A sigh of frustration escaped his lips as the make up artist finished fixing his make-up for the last time today.

N learned what was Starlights supposed to send on the next day,when streams of fanfictions started to come to them. Through social networks or letters,there were a tons. Yes, Of course,it was Ken’s solo decision and a joke, so N could just deny that event easily, and N seriously tried to do so. But,seeing the enthusiasm of Starlights, other members disagreed. Of course there was another reason behind their disagreement...

They were mostly Neo fanfic.

So why would the other members agree with Hakyeon. Only Leo wanted to stop this event. But seeing Leo’s annoyed face Hyuk started to support this event even more. In the end, the company also sided with the majority and Ken won.

The play starts in 20 seconds, get in your position. 18 seconds,17 seconds….

N stood on the stage, Leo beside him,with his phone in his hand.

“Leo hyung! Don't mess it up!!” Ravi shouted from behind,and just received a death glare in reply.

Well, of course Ravi was troubled. After all he was the one to choose that one lucky fanfic among the top hundred fanfictions chosen by the other members, so he had to read all of them in 4 days, arranged the whole play,cut off the extra parts in the fanfiction and added songs,it was all Ravi's job. However In the short period of one week, Leo did not even once attend the play practices. He practiced the dance and songs, also the two duet songs that Ravi wrote specially for this play,but as soon as the practice for the play started,he were nowhere to be seen.

Well it started with Leo noticing Ravi who had a smirk plastered on his face only to see Leo and N discussing the song together.Well, if someone reads 100 Neo fanfic in 4 days,of course he were to imagine stuffs when N and Leo looked at each other or smiled or played or stood together,in short,he just smiles whenever he sees them,making them feel more weird. So soon Leo stopped even standing beside N,let alone talking. And participating in the drama practice,was out of question.

Well N was glad about Leo's absence as well. In the dorm they just practiced the songs together. And for the play, N just practiced it with Hyuk or any other members. Whenever he saw Leo around the practice area he himself would flee from there. It was too awkward to do it with him. It didn't feel like a story to him,neither did it seem like one to Leo.

But N and Leo both were glad for two specific reasons.

One,None of those fanfic contained kiss. Starlights were generous enough to do so. Plus it was supposed to be an angst story so those two never gets together.And two…

because it was Neo.

The light fell upon them as the name of the play flashed on the large screen.

Is Love A Sin?

“Leo-ah~ are you again on phone?” N said the first sentence,and the crowd fell in silence, eyes focused on the stage,eyes focused on the screen.

Leo snuck his hand along with the phone into his pocket,starting to walk away. N grabbed his hand before he could leave.

“You have to care about the fans. I know you like her, but it's not a time to do those stuffs.

Leo let's out a sigh as he let out the next words with no emotion at all,

“Hakyeon, don't stick your nose in my business.”

The sentence was supposed to make the audience feel bad for N. But thanks to Leo’s no reaction action,it turned into a laughing skit which the fans did not miss to laugh at. But,thank God N was there as he soon tried to get the fans back into the play,as he slowly let go of Leo’s hand and Leo left the stage. N stood there lonely with the light slowly turning to blue and N looked up at the sky portraying a sad figure.

“Aww….poor N,” The fans all shouted.

The light turned off,and N left the stage.

Leo Sat on the stage with Hyuk beside him.

“Hyung,why do you keep checking these old conversation between you and N hyung. He is always before you. Just go and talk to him,” Hyuk said,looking at Leo's phone.

“Awwwwww…” the fans cooed. They seemed happy.

“Because,it’s not the same anymore. He changed…” Leo said. And unlike last time this sentence was filled with deep emotions, almost as if it was real.

Well,of course fans loved that line,but Hyuk became confused.

Was there a line about N hyung changing?umm... I must have forgotten it.

--------------------------

--------------------------

The 30 minutes play was almost done. Leo and N had already finished singing those two duet, it was only left for them to confess their feelings for each other,according to that story. N and Leo were both in the backstage now.

Hongbin, Ken and Hyuk were in the stage now. Their role was to discuss about N and Leo's weird behavior. N was looking at the stage from behind while Leo stared at N, holding his breath in.

“Hakyeon-ah~” Leo finally mustered the courage to say that name. Hakyeon turned to him,smiling, causing Leo to become more red.

“What's wrong?” N said, turning his head to him, but avoiding his eyes. And judging his voice,it was pretty much clear that he was really delighted.The fans were so engrossed into the play that they were not even uttering a single word like “ooo” or “aww” anymore. Just a few fans were sobbing because they figured out how the story was about to end. Well almost everyone who were watching knew it by then,but yet, the story had magic and that's why they were still so hooked up.

“I need to tell you something..”

N tilted his head, signaling him to go on.

“Today's play….what if..”

“Don't worry Leo... I know what you are about to say . I know it's really weird for you. Trust me I thought that as well. But it's just a play, so you don't have to think about it in the future.” N said as he turned his eyes to the stage again.

But that's not what I want…

Leo inhaled a deep breath.

“Hakyeon….”

N slightly turned his eyes to him, still not looking into his eyes.

“I li...”

“He loves him!!!” The fans shouted it from the top of their lungs with Hyuk and Hongbin, because they finally figured out why Leo and N acted weird around each other in that story
